[ Upstream commit 907f33028871fa7c9a3db1efd467b78ef82cce20 ]
The standard library perror() function provides a convenient way to print
an error message based on the current errno but this doesn't play nicely
with KTAP output. Provide a helper which does an equivalent thing in a KTAP
compatible format.
nolibc doesn't have a strerror() and adding the table of strings required
doesn't seem like a good fit for what it's trying to do so when we're using
that only print the errno.

Hi Greg,
I double checked and I don't see this commit in 6.6.29. As far as I
can tell the earliest it has been merged is in 6.7.1. Do you mind
rechecking?
Thank you,
Edward

I don't see this in v6.6.29.
The function that it adds is called, but doesn't exist however:
stable/linux-6.6.y:tools/testing/selftests/timers/posix_timers.c: ksft_perror("Can't call gettimeofday()");
stable/linux-6.6.y:tools/testing/selftests/timers/posix_timers.c: ksft_perror("Can't set timer");
stable/linux-6.6.y:tools/testing/selftests/timers/posix_timers.c: ksft_perror("Can't call gettimeofday()");
stable/linux-6.6.y:tools/testing/selftests/timers/posix_timers.c: ksft_perror("Can't create timer");
stable/linux-6.6.y:tools/testing/selftests/timers/posix_timers.c: ksft_perror("Can't call gettimeofday()");
stable/linux-6.6.y:tools/testing/selftests/timers/posix_timers.c: ksft_perror("Can't set timer");
stable/linux-6.6.y:tools/testing/selftests/timers/posix_timers.c: ksft_perror("Can't call gettimeofday()");
We should probably have this added to linux-6.6.y.

My fault, yes, you are right, it is not in 6.6.y, I don't know what I
was looking at.
Can you resubmit it if it really is needed there?
